- 2009, 中共中央马克思恩格斯列宁斯大林著作编译局, 马克思恩格斯文集 [Marx/Engels Collected Works], 2nd edition, number 1, page 4:
- 宗教 裡 的 苦難 既 是 現實 的 苦難 的 表現,又 是 對 這種 現實 的 苦難 的 抗議。宗教 是 被 壓迫 生靈 的 嘆息,是 無情 世界 的 感情,正 像 它 是 沒有 精神 的 制度 的 精神 一樣。宗教 是 人民 的 鴉片。
- Religious suffering is, at one and the same time, the expression of real suffering and a protest against real suffering. Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.
